I have been diagnosed with Psychosis 8 years back and been taking solian since then. Taking solian 50 mg since last few years. I thought of stopping it and took it on alternate days for 1 month in Apr. This month took it once in 3 or 4 days for 15 days. But suddenly am finding it difficult to sleep since last few days. Continuously for more than 4 days, didn't get proper sleep. Should I follow a different approach for stopping solian? How to get back my normal sleep daily?
